About me
Favorite things
Music
Music has always been a inspiration for writing and a way to help me picture a scene better in my head
Westerns
Growing up watching them, I have a soft spot for the genre since I grew up watching them with my dad and I enjoyed the epic feel most of these westerns possess
Space
I have always been curious about what lies beyond the earth and that's where a lot of my inspiration and interest in science fiction comes from
Hobbies
Writing
I have always liked hearing and reading stories, I was always inspired me to write my own stories as I feel like I always come up with new ideas that someone out there will enjoy
Drawing
It's always amazed me how some drawings look and I have always wanted to drawn great so have always tried to emulate comic book art I have seen
Influences
Writers
Stephen King
Prolific writer of numerous horror books, King's influence on me came a little later than Charlie Higson but the impact has been just as big, King has made me consider using my weirder plots
Charlie Higson
Author of the Young Bond and Enemy series, reading his enemy series was one of the first things I remember doing at school. He has been a author that inspired me to consider post-apocalypse and horror fiction
Jim Butcher
Author of the Dresden Files, reading his first book has been the catalyst for me to investigate good and bad cliches
Joss Whedon
Writer of Firefly, inspired me to consider character motivation and character driven stories, looking back at his influence, his recent failures in my opinion have made me consider that every writer has good and bad works
Television
Doctor Who
Adventures of a immortal time traveler sound like something silly and cartoonish, this long running sci-fi show was one of my earliest exposures to science fiction and one of the sources of childhood nightmares.
Firefly
A short lived television show stayed up all night watching in year 10, this space-western had a simple premise, 9 people trying to survive in a new frontier, it offered some interesting perspectives on war and other themes
